  • Standard Oil Company
    STANDARD OIL A Model Monopoly The Origins of Standard Oil • 1870: John D. Rockefeller and partners incorporate the Standard Oil Co. in Ohio • Soon began a systematic program of acquiring competitors. • By 1873, Standard had eliminated most competition within Ohio (1/3 of total US production), and began to spread into the Northeast. Standard’s Methods Standard employed a variety of cut-throat strategies and tactics to undermine (and eventually acquire) its competitors. These included: • Undercutting prices • Buying oil barrel components • Railroad rebates • Corporate espionage and violence • Technical innovation (use of petroleum in operations) Standard expands • Taking advantage of the financial panic of 1873, Standard was able to consolidate control of refineries in PA and NY • By 1878, Standard controlled 90% of all oil refined in the US. • Soon controlled most US marketing as well. Standard’s Marketing Division - 1886 Vertical Integration • Standard began to expand its control of the oil industry by expanding beyond its traditional refining business into all stages of oil and gas production. • Acquired pipelines, railroad tank cars, terminal facilities and barrel manufacturing factories. The Standard Oil Trust • 1882: An attorney for Standard suggests a new corporate arrangement where the stockholders Standard’s group of companies transferred their shares to a single set of trustees who controlled all of the companies. • In exchange, the stockholders received certificates entitling them to a specified share of the consolidated earnings of the jointly managed companies. The Standard Oil Trust’s advantage • Whereas refineries had earlier tried to control output through informal agreements, incentives to cheat prevented these attempts from succeeding.

Abstract. The sustainable agricultural development in the northwest coast of Egypt suffers constantly from the effects of surface runoff. Moreover, there is an urgent need by decision makers to know the effects of runoff. So the aim of this work is to integrate remote sensing and field data and the natural resource conservation service curve number model (NRCS-CN).using geographic information systems (GIS) for spatial evaluation of surface runoff .CN approach to assessment the effect of patio-temporal variations of different soil types as well as potential climate change impact on surface runoff. DEM was used to describe the effects of slope variables on water retention and surface runoff volumes. In addition the results reflects that the magnitude of surface runoff is associated with CN values using NRCS-CN model . The average of water retention ranging between 2.5 to 3.9m the results illustrated that the highest value of runoff is distinguished around the urban area and its surrounding where it ranged between 138 - 199 mm. The results show an increase in the amount of surface runoff to 199 mm when rainfall increases 200 mm / year.

    ALBERTA ENERGY AND UTILITIES BOARD Calgary Alberta SHELL CANADA LIMITED COGENERATION PLANT AND HYDROGEN PIPELINE Addendum to Decision 2000-30 FORT SASKATCHEWAN AREA Applications No.990464 and 1051618 DECISION 2000-30 The Alberta Energy and Utilities Board (Board/EUB) issued Decision 2000-30 (attached) on May 30, 2000, approving the applications. This addendum provides the reasons for the Board’s decisions. 1 INTRODUCTION 1.1 Application 990464 Shell Canada Limited (Shell) applied to the Board, pursuant to Section 9 of the Hydro and Electric Energy Act, for approval to construct and operate a 150 megawatt (MW) natural-gas- fired cogeneration plant on its approved Scotford Upgrader site. This site is adjacent to the Scotford Refinery in Strathcona County, about 14 km north of Fort Saskatchewan, Alberta. The cogeneration plant would include • a natural-gas-fired combustion gas turbine, which would generate 80 MW of electric power, • a heat recovery steam generator (HRSG), and • a steam turbine, which would generate about 70 MW of electric power. The applicant described the cogeneration process as follows: • Natural gas would be fired in the combustion turbine to generate about 80 MW of electricity. • Heat would be recovered from the hot combustion turbine exhaust gases in the HRSG, which would produce steam. • The steam would be delivered to the upgrader to help meet its steam requirements. • High-pressure HRSG steam and the excess high-pressure steam from the upgrader process units would be delivered to the steam turbine to produce an additional 70 MW of electricity. 1.2 Application 1051618 Shell also applied, pursuant to Part 4 of the Pipeline Act, for approval to construct and operate approximately 8.7 km of 762 mm outside diameter pipeline to transport hydrogen gas from the existing Dow Chemical Canada Inc.
